Walgreens Celebrates Black History

2008-02-10T10:49:00.001-05:00

My e-friends over at Leon Says caught this lovely tribute to Black History Month at Walgreens. When I originally say this pic, I tilted my head and stared at the screen for a moment trying to understand WHY Jumbo Cotton Balls would be appropriate tribute. Maybe I should be happy that the display wasn't a skillet, watermelon, Shake-n-Bake, Colt 45 - you see where I'm going with this. I don't appreciate this at all. Who ever do this could have post that sign over so many other things - a wrench, pressure cooker, pencil sharpner, fire extinguisher. Because all the things were invented by African American and I'm sure Walgreens sells these things as well.

Politics: Yes We Can

2008-02-03T13:41:00.000-05:00

Sorry about all the Youtube videos and the political chat. Well actually I'm only feel bad about all the Youtube videos. This is a historical election, and people are not shy about getting involved and sharing their opinions. Although I am not 100% on who will get my vote on Super Tuesday (New York Stand UP!!), I do see this video as a beautiful and powerful statement in support of Obama. Normally I find celeb packed endorsements kinda chessy and obnoxiously directed to younger voters. BUT this one was well done and very powerful. I'm kinda waiting on Hillary's version cause you know it's coming.

Interesting?...Maya Angelou singing the praises of Hillary Clinton?... I wonder if Oprah knows about this?

There also a Quincy Jones Support video as well.

I'll have to admit I'm mildly obsessed with this Harlem minister. I DO NOT agree with him in any way, but I'll be damned if he isn't the live action version of Uncle Ruckus. Pastor James Manning has been on a campaign against Obama because Black People have struggled too hard have a Black man as a leader. Yep, Pastor Manning said that and you can watch here CLICK. Actually if you have a moment take a glance at some of the Atlah World video collection. Pastor Manning repeated criticizes Obama for having a White Mama and suggest that Obama needs to go back to Africa. There is also quite a few Dis Video for other mainstream Preachers. The Creflo Dollar video is my favorite.

ENJOY!!!

News: Man Fights off Attacks & Good Samaritan

2008-01-12T10:23:00.000-05:00

A New York Transit worker walking home after a late shift, was mugged my 3 hoodlums. However, Maurice Parks fought back. He managed to stab one of the muggers with his own knife, and unfortunately Parks also stabbed a man who seemed to be a good Samaritan trying to help stop the robbery. Full Story
.
.
.
Ok....um... I know this guy!! Maurice Parks, I meet him last year on the train. I was rushing to catch the train, so I did what most people do when trying to catch train - I stuck my arm in the door. Maurice was the conductor that proceeded to close the train door on my arm. I gave him attitude, he opened the train doors and started flirting with me. Well anyway we chit chated after that, I did my usual find his flaws routine and decided to stop checking for him. Maurice is like a health and fitness fanatic - this would never work. I remember he gave me some speech about being physically clean and not eating meat. The whole time I'm thinking - BBQ ribs and Daiquiris would be "GREAT RIGHT NOW". So, turns out this guy is a third degree black belt, and gangsta as HELL. I heard on the news that back in the 90's Maurice was getting robbed at gunpoint, and TOOK the gun from that mugger and SHOT homeboy with his own gun. I'm kinda glad Maurice and myself did take it to that level. He would have had a bad dream and messed me up in the middle of the night.
.
But I must that it was tragic that the good guy trying to help lost his life. God Bless.

I might be late (or early) to some, but I'm sharing some new people that I am feeling. Put your candles and bubble bath listening ears on. These are both in the grown-n-sexy category.

<< Hope - I first heard one of her song on of all places Perez Hilton. (Imagine that!!) And I fell in Love!! Her song Who am I to say is so sweet and personal. Just a guitar and simple vocals always gets me. Apparently this song was on the soundtrack to "Why Did I Get Married?" *crickets*

Here are the Links: Who Am I to Say- Listen

Myspace & WebSite

>>Jazmine Sullivan is19 with a Grown voice and apparently been on the music scene for a while now. What I like about her most is that she isn't scared to sing. A lot of people do that talk singing (which annoys me) so that it will get those pop radio spin. But every once in a while we need to hear some of that old school R&B flavor. Jazmine's song that I'm feeling is In Love With Another Man. (I really want to leave this song on some one's voicemail but that would be childish). Again with the links:

New Years is definitely one of my top 3 holiday. Its all about new beginnings and celebrating life. I did get shyt faced and lets just say I took a "nap". I got my first booty call for the year. It's ignorant, but it makes me feel special that I tops of someone list :o)

Oh and here's a thought: Slaves were granted their freedom by the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1st, 1863. That's means us darkies in American have been free for less than 150 years. Let that marinate.

I hate when men a like chicken heads!!

.
Late at night I hear my phone ringing. I don't even look to see who calling because I chillin' and about to go to bed. Then it rings again. Nope still didn't answer it. Then my cell rings for the 3rd time. Clearly, whoever is calling thinks I'm a sleep and wants to wake me up. It might be an emergency so I answer:
.
Male: oh you got a new boyfriend or something why aren't you answering my calls?
S.K. : *rolls eyes*
.
I grew up with enough iggnant ass men to know, Don't answer no bytchs questions. So I change the subject, until he calms down and we get off the phone amicably. The guy live a few hours away, and lives with his girl. HE IS NOT MY MAN. And truthfully I'm NOT checking for him. So....WTF IS HE DOING??
.
My main problem with his phone calls was that it was done out of pure HATE!! If I'm not your chick and you think I'm laid up with the next dude, why would you try to blow up MY SPOT??!!

It's cold in NY and I'm scared to go outside, so I checking out one of my fav blogs and I stop by NahRight. There's a video from a person I never heard of with no features from T-Pain, Akon or DJ Khalid, but some how I managed to click play. This song - I don't really want to call it hot because of the subject but it HAWT in that REAL LIFE kinda way. If Tupac would have made a song about domestic violence - this would it. I don't really want to make that comparison but that's the best why I can describe it.

Do you ever have a moment of pure genius? Where you say something so profound that you must bask in your own greatness well? Well I had that moment today. *pause so that the light of humility my shine down on me* There were a few men talking about saggy tittayballs, and I could sense women tensing up, and I blessed the world with my version of truth & reality....
.

...some of you men can swing those droopy ballz over your shoulders, but you
don't hear the ladies talking.

People we need to get over the idea that people need to have a perfect body to be sexy. NO ONE is airbrushed perfect in real life. And if they are guess what? They're either going to be completely F**Ked in the head or out of your price range/totally not interested in you.

Peace & Blessing.

I really did have big homes for Syleena Johnson when she first came, and I love this song. R. Kelly wrote/produced it back before we knew how gross his as way. So enjoy the flashback or maybe I hipped you to something new. :o)

I can't front, as a fan of rap music I had genuine love for Pimp C. Lyrically and flow wise he was always on point and did nothing but represent the south. Then as a personality in rap music, I love his, "I don't give a f**k, I'm going to speak my mind" style. No matter how out there or shocking one of his comments were there was always some truth and/or humor to be found. I'll miss what he added to the game. I used to love talking ish to people online and signing it Pimp C's personal secretary. Here's one of my favorite songs that Pimp C blessed.

I had half a mind not to do a Turkey Day post but here goes:

~ My old Jamaican uncle was harassed by a Gay couple on his flight. My uncle and the couple were seated in the same row and once they realized he was Jamaican, they as he put it, "began the most inappropriate public displays of affection" with the sole purpose of torturing him. All I could do was cut the tomatoes for the salad and not LOL in his face. Bless his homophobic heart. Btw his son is soooo geigh and in the closet!!!

~My mother was forced to call me by the "K" name, because this side of the family doesn't find the... lets say beauty in the "S" name. In fact they (grown ass people) pause, smile and/or giggle before saying the "S" name. :o) if you know the personal e-mail addy you'll understand.

~There was an under 35 side eye when my younger cousin decided to Crank that Soulja Boy at dinner.

^This same boy asked for a BATTING CAGE for Christmas. His mom said he write whatever he wants a piece of paper.bwhahaha Oh and the FULL Christmas List, this chile passed them out like flyers to a club. He's in his early teens so I'm blaming the hormones.

~ My older brother was the first to become clearly "tipsy" as he called it. There was a stumble and the plate fell but not the bottle of wine. *wipes away single tear* He is the wind beneath my drunk ass wing.

~After dinner folks was falling like dominoes. The *itis was kicking in strong. My cousin put his foot in that turkey.

~ Once folk recovered the men planned their shopping while the ladies watched football. Gotta love it!

.....and what I'm most Thank Full 4 :

News: Buckwheat Lives!!

2007-11-14T01:12:00.000-05:00

HOUMA, La. -- A state representative in a runoff election infuriated civil rights leaders after she ended a conversation with the mother of the NAACP's local president by saying, "Talk to you later, Buckwheat."
State Rep. Carla Blanchard Dartez, of Morgan City, acknowledged she made the remark during a Thursday night telephone conversation with Hazel Boykin to thank her for driving voters to the polls.

.
Buckwheat, a black child character in the "Little Rascals" comedies of the 1930s and '40s, is viewed as a racial stereotype demeaning to black people.

.
Hazel Boykin's son, Jerome, is the NAACP's president in Terrebonne Parish. She is well-known as a 1960s civil rights activist, helping to desegregate restaurants and the parish school system.

.
Dartez has represented parts of Terrebonne, St. Mary and Assumption parishes since 1999. She has said she does not intend to drop out of the race.

.
"I made an insensitive comment when speaking with Hazel Boykin, and I have apologized to the Boykin family and publicly for my choice of words," Dartez said in a statement. "I have a strong record of fighting for issues important to the African American community; in fact, I have a 93 percent voting record with the Black Caucus." continue reading

* * * * *

When first heard about this I was a speechless, it seemed so absurd. As I thought about it I found some words. WTF was the woman thinking? A blackwoman is trying to help her community and she is called BuckWheat. Why didn't Rep. Dartez just say, "Thanks nigger. You were a great help." Calling a black person this is disrepectful pure and simple. This isn't a bullish grey area comment, where Rep. Dartez can say, "well black people say it so I thought it was ok." When black people call some Buckwheat its an insult and they (We- ME) mean that ish. And I don't care that she apologized, she had to apologize to save face. God only knows how long she's been dying to call someone Buck Momofukku Wheat. But I guess I'm supposed to file this under at least you know where she stands.....*counts backwards from 99 to calm down*

I have so much love for old school R&B. A time where you really had to have soul and sang to be professional singer. *side-eye T-Pain* Something about this song puts me on pause so that I can soak up all his raw emotion without distraction. Makes you wanna find someone to wake up to. Enjoy the video.

News: Bye-Bye Black CEO

2007-11-06T00:23:00.000-05:00

Black CEOs: A tiny group shrinks more

NEW YORK - It's getting lonelier at the top for black CEOs.
Only four blacks will be left running Fortune 500 companies after Stan O'Neal's abrupt retirement from the top spot at Merrill Lynch & Co. last week and Time Warner Inc. Dick Parsons' announcement Monday that he will retire at the end of the year.

.
That leaves Aylwin Lewis at Sears Holding Corp., Kenneth Chenault at American Express Co., Ronald Williams at Aetna Inc. and Clarence Otis at Darden Restaurants Inc. as the only black chief executives among this list of the nation's largest companies.

.
To some, the departures of O'Neal and Parsons underscore that all CEOs, whatever their race, have a short shelf life.

.
"In the best situations, these are not jobs you hold on to for more than five to seven years," said Alfred Edmond Jr., editor-in-chief of Black Enterprise magazine. "The bulletproof CEOs of the '80s — those days are long gone, even for white men."

.
Twenty years from now, Edmond predicts, there will be double the number of black CEOs, but that will still bring their total to fewer than a dozen. "The numbers are so small that any improvement will seem like a giant leap forward," he said.

.
On his short list are John Thompson, CEO of Symantec Corp., which is just shy of entering the Fortune 500; Ursula M. Burns, president of Xerox Corp., and Don Thompson, president of McDonald's USA at McDonald's Corp.

.
While the numbers now may be dispiriting, "10 or 15 years ago, we couldn't have had this conversation, because there was no one to talk about," Edmond said.

Dating: The Neighbor Boy

2007-10-30T02:14:00.000-04:00

As some of you may know already, I'm a little touched in the head. haha. So here's more evidence.

A young man who lives on my street has a crush on me and has asked me out a few time. I always politely decline, probably because he's a CoughNiceGuyCough. Ya'll know that not my type, but moving along.

I drive around the corner onto my street and I'm felling blessed because there is a parking spot waiting for me. I throw my car in reverse to parallel parking, then I notice a raggedy ass Jeep stopped behind me. I do my best fake smile "I'm parking, move you ish" and this woman is just grilling me. And it hits me, this chick is really trying to steal my parking spot while I'm in mid maneuver. WTF.

Just in time neighbor boy shows up, and says, "is this woman giving you a hard time? I got this." Neighbor boy approaches the crazy lady, speaks to hear for 3 seconds and I'm thinking "his ass can't handle ish." So I get out the car to scream on this woman. And you know what he does? HE yells at ME, telling me to get back in the car and park. So before I got back in the car, I looked his ass up-and-down and realized how cute his ass was. Bwhahaha. Pray for me ya'll. Men yelling at me should NOT be a turn on. Why Lawd? Why?

So I kept my spot and now I'm feeling neighbor boy. I love testosterone. (Like Fat Kids love cake). I love a man to not scared to step up and handle his business.

* * * * *

Remember I told you about my co-worker. The one that walks around me in circles (or half circles if I'm seated). Thankfully he stopped doing that, and decided to let me breathe. Well anyway I'm down to my last pair of blue contact lenses (yeah and what?) so I popped in a set of clear ones. I never would have thought this small alteration in my apperance would be such a big deal.

Long story short (I wish he would have given ME the condensed version) he spent 30 minutes trying to convince me that I was insecure, in denial and really didn't like who I'm as as a person. In my best I'm-at-work-so-won't-cuss-you-the-eff-out voice, I let him know my choice to wear colored contacts is not that serious. Some woman wear make-up, wigs whatever and he would never come at them that way, so leave me alone with splash of color. Especially since he was sweating my ass hard when he thought it was natural. Once he realized that I suffering from low self-esteem like he hoped, homeboy tells me I'm conceited. I laughed, rolled my eyes and changed the subject.

Somewhere in the new conversation I forgot that he was a complete jackass, and when he asked me to take him part way home I said ok. I'm mad but glad that I did. On the ride he called me shallow, insecure, a know-it-all, and AGAIN conceited ....but then you know what this negro asked me? Why won't I go on a date with him???? !!!!!! Oh, I had to break it down. NOW he's trying to convince me that he's not a jerk. This went on for 20 minutes. Then he asked me to put the A/C on because he was sweating. It's like 50 degrees outside LOL. Next 20 minutes I stoped listening, so I don't know what he said, but I did ask him to get out my car. He then stayed running his mouth for ANOTHER 20 MINUTES!!!! 60 minutes total.

It's about to get real ackward at the work place.

Rants: Black Man Don't Believe It!!

2007-10-22T02:50:00.000-04:00

All of a sudden the state of Black men in America has a become a major social issue. Mainly focusing on the way that Black men have failed the Black family. I've listened and read various opinions and I have even twisted up my face at the "numbers".

But today I heard something that pissed me off. I enjoy radio talk shows that focus in African American issues - it's a Sunday highlight for me really. Anyway, as I'm listening I hear one man after another say "I never learned how a man is suppose to maintain a family," or "there wasn't a man around to teach me how to be a man."

These types of statement disturbs my soul. Why because I think it disrespectful and ignorant. Yep, I said. A lot of Black men have used these kinds of statements as a crutch for their neglect of home. If YOU know a man that uses these statements as a crutch, please tell him to STOP. And I'm being dead ass serious.

The male guest on this radio talk show listed all the things they believed could only be taught from a man to a boy. And aside from learning how to shaving, it all sounded like bullish to me. I never learned how to love a woman. I never learned what role a man plays in the house. I never learned how to court a woman and create a sustainable relationship. You maybe reading and seeing these as accurate statements about many Black men's steps into manhood. I Do Not.

If you are a Black boy raised by a Black women you've learned far more than your giving yourself credit for. As a child growing, you see everything. You see your mother wishing for roses on Valentine's Day, or yearning for someone special to ring in the New Year with. You learned what roles a man plays in the house every time your mother went to her second job, or asked someone to help her out with some money until she got paid. Or the time when she's asked you to hold the chair so she could reach sometime up high. Hell, what about the times when mom said, "Baby, I only have two hand." What about the time when mom came home mad because some crude man grabbed at her on the way home - you as a man, learned how to approach a woman and you know what a woman wants to hear. Now the part about maintaining a relationship - if you can maintain friendship with your boys for years, you can maintain a relationship. I know I'm over simplifying because there's sex and emotions in a relationship. But if you have a woman willing to pretend that giving you head in the highlight of her day, you can give that woman a the same level of respect and commitment you give to your friends. Beside your boys ain't blowing you. Or maybe they are? I'm not judging.

Nonetheless, I'm sure you see my point. If Black men where to say they were afraid, anxious or even BRAINWASHED to believe that they can't love black women or raise their children, I'd believe that. But don't say you never learned- It's disrespect for to the Village of Woman that raised you.

Black men stop letting the world paint you with the weak man brush.

p.s. this rant is from the heart. Think of it as your mother cussing you out for bringing home B's when she knows your capable of A's. :O)

News: Strippers have Diseases!!!

Tuberculosis outbreak blamed on stripper

PHILIPSBURG, St. Maarten - Dozens of people in St. Maarten are being treated for latent tuberculosis after health officials warned that they may have been exposed to the illness by a stripper infected with an active form of the disease.

At least 40 people tested positive after the health department treated an exotic dancer from the Dominican Republic several months ago and sent her home, according to a government news release issued Friday.

Health officials struggled to identify those exposed, launching a public campaign to urge anyone who had contact with the woman to seek treatment. They now believe they have identified everyone infected. source

Music: Cassidy Vs Jay-Z??

2007-10-19T03:13:00.001-04:00

Cassidy was asked in an interview with SOHH, how he felt about releasing an album the same day as Jay-z, and this was his answer:

…..Hov legendary but I think right now the way that I got the hood on smash and
the way that my song is popping off. I don’t think it would be a smart decision
for Hov to drop on November the 6th. With the type of buzz the type of song he
got out now. It’s not like a volume 1 or 2 going drop it’s a lot different. It’s
going to be beneficial the same way that Kanye and 50 both benefited from
dropping on the same day. I think if I drop on the same day as someone as
legendary as Hov, I can’t do nothing but benefit from that.

I was never the biggest Jay-z fan, but Cassidy…..You are tripping!!! Please don’t do it to yourself. I like your music but don’t compare yourself to Jay-Z. Your not even fighting in the same weight class as Camel D**k. I don't know which chick you got rubbing your back and gassing you up like this, but that broad needs to stop.

And before you think I’m going soft on the Jigga man, his single Blue Magic isn’t even in the Top Ten Rap Singles on Billboard. Check for your self. Or check here. Scroll down to 37. He’s a "legend" and a CEO, but still can’t make it into the Top Ten. Bwhahahahaha!!!! Flex drop a bomb on that!!!

Movies: Heartbreak Kid

2007-10-07T13:13:00.000-04:00

This is not a movie review, but I did see the Heartbreak Kid this weekend. The movie was funny - in a very typical Ben Stiller fashion.

I do however have a small issue with the movie. I think it was a bit coughracistcough. I could be over sensitive, but there were some suspect things in that movie.

First, Ben Stiller's father in the movie was behaving in a ghetto/hip hop manner. I know that all black people are not inherently ghetto and/or hip hop - but certain stereotypes are linked to Black culture. That being said I didn't like the cool, hip hop Dad saying, "Bytchez be crazy." It bothered me.

Secondly, half way through the movie Stiller is having sex with his movie wife and she says, "Fux me like a Blackman." The 90% White movie theater howls with laughter. I lean over to person I'm with to say, "..that was racist." Another Blackwoman (not with me) hears what I said and replies, "It sure was." Ben Stiller then gives his wife a rendition of the jackhammer. NOW I'm thinking- Whoa so that's how Blackmen fux. The woman who overheard my comment, gets up. I thought she was going to the ladies room but she never returned to her seat. When I realize that she walked out and I didn't, I felt like a laughing coon because I shrugged it off and continued to watch and laugh.

Thirdly, the only Black person to speak in the Heartbreak Kid was a little girl that was clearly mixed. This could be nitpicking but it hard for me to accept movie societies were Black people marginally exist.

Quote: Iranian President.

2007-09-25T01:30:00.000-04:00

There was a lot of contoversy about the Leader Of Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, speaking at Columbia University in NYC on 9.24.07.

Many people feel that he is a brutal tyrant and should not be given an American forum to voice in beliefs. Well I feel like this, always let the next person speak their mind. Because that way you know where they're coming from and the best way to protect yourself. Secondly, like the old expression goes - It's better to be thought a fool then open your mouth and remove all doubt.
.
When asked about his in justice treatment of homosexuals in Iran, Ahmadinejad answered,
.
"We don't have homosexuals like in your country. We don't have that in our country. We don't have this phenomenon I don't know who's told you we have it."
.
This would be hilarious if he weren't a leader of a well armed nation. source

I have an issue with Jay-z. My issue with Jay arises from his verse on the I Get Money Rmx.

...I'm not the biggest fan of Beyonce, and I may have made 1 or 2 light hearted comments. But this ish right here is sooo foul. I don't care what kind of Arabian Camel D Jay-z is swinging, this is really disrespectful.

...And Beyonce I'm talking to you now: You have too much going on in your life to be looking like a Junior Kim Porter get played in public- for ALL to see. There isn't anything sexy about looking like a fool sprung off the D. But even if Bey doesn't have a spine, and bet Papa and Mama Knowles are not pleased and toiling away in the crypt concocting a plan. Trust.

...And to quote Keyshia Cole: If he ain't gonna treat you the way he should, then let him go. It ain't where he's at it's where he wants to be. And who knew that Keyshia and Kim would be setting a better example for the shorties coming up. SMH

*I'm gonna wait a moment to get up Jay's ass for the G.O.A.T. comment.

News: OJ Got Me!!

2007-09-19T13:44:00.000-04:00

I'm sure everyone knows about OJ Simpson's recent legal trouble, but there's something I need to talk about.

WTF did OJ put in my juice to make me defend his crazy behind no matter what the situation???

NO, seriously. I really believe 100% again, that OJ was set up. I believed he was set up the moment he was a arrest. I didn't even know what had happened yet, and now that I have more details of the Robbery that Allegedly took place in a Vegas Hotel, I'm sure he was set up.

First and foremost, If someone stole my stuff and I knew where they were - I'm getting my stuff back. Secondly - they just happened to be recording the whole situation. Hmmm, that's very normal. And why is yt media trying to make it seem like OJ was acting like a complete manic on those tapes, because honestly I would act the same way. You probably would too. Some steals your property and is actively trying to sell it, what's the first question you'd ask: What did you think you were gonna steal my s**t and sell it?

Who knows maybe I'm a sociopath waiting for my opportunity to shine, but I still OJ is innocent. This is the sign I would have made for OJ but someone beat me to it.

p.s. For a man in his 60's OJ is looking like a real Cat Daddy.

Dating: Chicken Heads

2007-09-13T01:33:00.000-04:00

I really want to get married. No, not to fulfill some princess childhood dream. But because I HATE DATING!!! (and regular loving would be nice too.) It's a numbers game blah, blah, blah.... One day you'll find the right one - Whatever!!

And furthermore I think men nowadays have WAY more baggage than women. Seriously. But that's another rant for another day. Today's victim is Ronnie. (If these boys only knew hahaha)

Ronnie is an aspiring rapper/producer. (yeah I'm bored already, too.) Anyway, when we met he was trying to get me to buy his CD, and I ended up with his CD and his number. Normally, things don't happen this way but he's cute. Not my type but still cute. Light and curly with green eyes.

We hung out once but nothing happened. Then I ran into him recently - and got all those it must be fate thoughts running in my head.

So, now where sharing phone time, and I'm wondering why is guy it not keeping my interest. And I'm really thinking hard about this one. Technically he's a "thug" and very do-able - so why am I not feeling him? Then it clicked - He's a Chicken Head!!! *pause for laughter* Why do I say this you ask? Here are a few examples:

1.) Everytime he spoke in the phone he asked me if I was in my car. I mean like, "Hey, you in the whip?" but not "Hey, how you doing?"

2.) We had this conversation:

Ronnie: Well you know I really a private person. So I don't like people to know who I'm talking to unless its serious you know.....So if we were to hang out It can't be anywhere around here or downtown.

Me: *confused pause* (I can understand not want people in your business. I think that way too, but this sounded odd.) But we live Uptown, and if we can't go Downtown - What do you mean? Out of the state? (saying this out loud has now caused me to have a fit of laughter. I'm laughing now thinking about.)

Ronnie: *waits for me to stop laughing* I'm not saying that but really I want to be that special man in your life. I want to lay in YOUR bed with you. You know the one that comes over after you've had a long day, to help you relax. That guy to bring you something to eat when you hungry. I want to be that guy you come home to.

Me: Well you know how your a private person. I'm the same way with my home. So all that right there is not happening until I get to know YOU better.

Now I'm thinking he really has housing issues. And I don't let random people in my home. Period. I got half on a short stay. Ronnie went on about how I needed to trust, and let him into my heart. *blank stare* I made an excuse and let that convo go to the wind.

3.) This was pretty much the deal breaker. Ronnie said we should spend the day together. I had nothing special to do, so I said ok. When I called him at the agreed upon time *sigh* Ronnie said to me, "Yeah this sound good. So come pick me up and take me out to eat. Then you can take me to a movie."

Isn't this how Birds acts??

Sweating Nicca's for their cars and tryna get dudes to spend money on them? I'm the bytch in this situation. ME!! Not HIM!! WTF??!!

Tell a Friend 2 Tell a Friend - S.K. is too cute for this ish!!

Medicare Don't Care about Poor Folk

2007-08-19T22:25:00.000-04:00

Medicare won't pay for hospital mistakes

WASHINGTON - Medicare will stop paying the costs of treating infections, falls, objects left in surgical patients and other things that happen in hospitals that could have been prevented.

The rule change announced this month is among several initiatives that the administration says are intended to improve the accuracy of Medicare's payment for hospital patients who receive acute care and to encourage hospitals to improve the quality of their services.

"Medicare payments for inpatient services will be more accurate and better reflect the severity of the patient's condition," Herb Kuhn, the acting deputy commissioner of the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, said in a statement.

The rule identifies eight conditions — including three serious types of preventable incidents sometimes called "never events" — that Medicare no longer will pay for.
Those conditions are: objects left in a patient during surgery; blood incompatibility; air embolism; falls; mediastinitis, which is an infection after heart surgery; urinary tract infections from using catheters; pressure ulcers, or bed sores; and vascular infections from using catheters.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said it also would work to add three more conditions to the list next year.

"Our efforts in this arena and in other payment rules are to ensure that CMS is an active puchaser, not passive payer, of health care," Jeff Nelligan, a spokesman for the agency, said Saturday. He said the rule "underscores our drive toward quality, efficiency and integrity in the hospital setting."

Hospitals in the future will be expected to pick up the cost of additional treatment required by a preventable condition acquired in the hospital.

"The hospital cannot bill the beneficiary for any charges associated with the hospital-acquired complication," the final rules say.

Congress in 2006 gave the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services the power to prevent Medicare from giving hospitals higher payment for the extra costs of treating a patient when infections and other preventable conditions occur during a hospital stay.

.....And the poor people will continue to suffer.

Basically if your poor at a crappy hospital, with crappy doctors, hope the hospital will pay for the damage they've cause you or that you can afford a lawyer to sue.

Dating: Some Thing Like A Good Guy

2007-08-15T01:44:00.000-04:00

I haven't done a dating post in a while. No, not because I have a lack of subject matter. (shout out to Mama for the good genes.) But quite frankly I'd rather plunk my eyebrows, then acknowledge certain folk. btw - My Arch Game is Sick!!!

Moving on. I guess you can say I have two guys trying to "holla @ me." There not the only two, but they do share something in common. They both think they're "Good Guys." From what I can gather they believe themselves to be good guys because they have jobs and did not say, 'yo mama let me hit.' I'll save the speech about not praising people for what they're supposed to do.

Good Guy #1: Let's call this guy Matt. I've worked with Matt for about 2 years now and it took him a year and a half to approach me just to say hi. NOW, don't give me that unapproachable speech about women being intimidating. I'm hella nice..*blank stare*... at work....for a paycheck. No. I really am nice though. I speak to EVERYONE. Even the man that talks like the next black sniper and the crazy Croatian cleaning lady who hits people with the vacuum. ....wait what was I talking about... oh yeah Matt. His game plan was to sneak into panties by pretending to be my friend. *ring the alarm* A Good Guy doesn't pretend to be your friend. Hello!!!

One Friday he basically told me he wanted the Cookie and I told him

a.) I don't deal with co-workers. Period.
b.) He really just wasn't ready.

Matt laughed, they called me at like 8pm on a Saturday to hang out at a club with him and his friends . Unfortunately for him, S.K. has a life and plans of her own and 8pm on Saturday I'm already booked :oP

Monday was cool we chit-chatted about our weekends. Tuesday, Matt no longer puts aside 45mins of his day to talk to me, but he now makes odd comments and circles me when talking. Yes, he walks circles around me or half circles if I'm seated.

I wanna wrap this up by saying 2 things: 1.) This is why I don't deal with people at work personally. Imagine if it got deeper than conversation. 2.) He would preach to me that he was a good man blah blah but to me pretending to be my friend to fvck is just as bad and the dude on the corner. Except it took your lower self-esteem ass 3 weeks of build up to say what the guy on the corner said in 30 minutes. Think about it!!

Good Guy #2: This one is Keith. Our families are really close so I've seen him on and off through out my life. Recently I saw him again at a family function, and he's been sweating me, like crazy, ever since. Keith was giving me the good man speech hard. HARD!!!! How I need a man like him in my life. A good, honest, hard working man. All of this while I'm admittedly letting him caress my leg. So finally, Keith ask, "what's up with me and you seeing where this goes?"

Pause....Before I continue let me say this, my mother is a gossip and already told me that Keith lives with his girlfriend and wants to marry her and have her as the mother of his children. Yep.

So I look Keith in his lovely brown eyes and tell him that I don't think his girlfriend Amanda would appreciate us dating. Keith stuttered, told his version of but we're like "roommates." I laughed in his face.

Moral of these stories beware of the Wolf in Sheep's Clothing.

In honor of Judge Vincent Gaughan setting R. Kelly's court date for September 17, 2007, where Kelly will face 14 counts of child pornography - I have decided to write a song to celebrate. Like to hear it? Here it goes.....
.
.
*clears throat to song*
.
.

I used to think that I would get away
And life was nothing but an remixed song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm scared of Bubba’s loving arms
.
If I am guilty, I can appeal it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

.
I believe I’m Fuucked
I believe I ouuuut of luuuccck
I think about it every night and day
Spread my cheeks and get tapped away
I believe I’m sore
I see me running through that jail cell door
I believe I’m fuccked
I believe I’m fuccked
I believe I’m fuccked
.
See I am on the verge of cell lock down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are men here 4 life I must out run
But first I know they will piss on me, oh
.
If I am guilty, I can appeal it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

.
Ok I'm done. I can't stop laughing long enough to keep typing.

Music: MTV's Hottest Rapper's

2007-07-31T00:18:00.000-04:00

The kind people over at MTV have come up with a list of the "Hottest MC's in the Game". *chuckles* By the "Game" I'm guessing they mean the last 2 yrs. I'm still trying to figure out what their grading but here's the list, and of course my smart ass comments :o)

10. Jim Jones - ok so we're off to a terrible start. Are they serious? Jim Jones can't rap. Period. He says himself that he can't rap. He says he's a "entertainer." The hottest thing Jimmy ever did was "Ballin" and that jumpshot thing - so WTF happened here??

9. Common - I'm disgusted I can't believe he's #9....Ok wait... I got distracted. I was thinking about my list of rappers who could get it. Yeah he can stay at 9.

8. 50 Cent - hmm this just doesn't seem right. *shrugs* oh well

7. Jay-Z - bwhahahaha Jay was being a shady bytch to every other rapper on Def Jam and he still couldn't get higher than 7??? ROTFLMAO!!!!

6. Young Jeezy - You should have Jimmy's spot, and he should be re-taking the Hygiene Class he missed in High School. You 2nd album was weak like Al Reynold's wrist. Yeah I said it.

.
off topic: I really not ok with black people were red Monkey Jeans, and paying major $$$$ for them.
.

5. Kanye West - I'm Ok with this.
.

4. Andre 3000 - Good pick - but what about Big Boi. In my head they are still joined at the hip.
.

3. Game - I never get what people find interesting in his "talent"
.
2. T.I. - Lollipop Guild Stand Up!!!
.

1. Lil Wayne - Yeah, he's hot out there. No jokes here.
.
.

My personal Honorable mention:

.
Kim Kardashian - the girl can rap her mouth around a D.....ok ok I'll be good.
.
T-Pain - His last album had a lot of hot club song. And there's no-one out there that can convince me that he ass is a singer, thus he's a rapper.

J. Holiday - Bed

News: Iraqi's PM wants US 2 Leave

2007-07-15T01:52:00.000-04:00

I have a question:
.
Lets say you had a friend going through really tough times. And you were trying your best to help them get there life together. So much so that your home situation is now having problem. Ok, so one day while at your friends house trying to raise their spirits, they turn to you and say, "You know what? You've been here long enough and your making things worse. You can leave now. But before you leave give me that six pack of cervezas and the money you were going to spend to take me to the club - just give me the cash and bounce."
.
I know what I would do. Take my ish and go home!!
.

BAGHDAD - Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said Saturday that the Iraqi army and police are capable of keeping security in the country and American troops can leave “any time they want,” though he acknowledged the forces need further weapons and training.
.
So you need US intellgence, weapons and (real talk) money - but you want our troops out of Iraq? Okaaay then. *scratches head*
.

Al-Maliki said difficulty in enacting the measures [to regain stability] was “natural” given Iraq’s turmoil. But one of his top aides, Hassan al-Suneid, rankled at the assessment, saying the U.S. was treating Iraq like “an experiment in an American laboratory.” He sharply criticised the U.S. military, saying it was committing human rights violations, embarassing the Iraqi government with its tactics and cooperating with “gangs of killers” in its campaign against al-Qaida in Iraq. source

* * * * *

*sighs* Without getting too deep into politics. Leaving Iraq right now, to me is an easy call. No-One want the US there, and it seems that were doing more harm that good in every aspect of this war. When government officals in Iraq start crying "human rights violations" it can only be down hill from there.

.
.....I realize G.W. Bush is trying to ride this war out until the end of his presidency but I truly don't believe his legacy is worth all the damaged cause. Oh and you know Bin "Diddy of the Middle East" Laden just released another video right? But he's not our major concern.

My Life: MySpace & Friends

2007-07-01T12:56:00.000-04:00

I'm not a big fan of MySpace or these others "friend" sites and here are my reason:

1.) I'm a paranoid Jamaican & listing my friends with photos, locations, ranking etc. on a well organized site for the CIA sounds dumb!!!

2.) I don't like random people trying to "holla" at me in real life but an on-line "holla" should be different?

.......oh and if you motivations to holla at me are:

.......you did a zip code search and I'm within 5 miles of you or

.......you find the pics of me crossed eyed drunk with girls sexy

Keep it moving - For Real

3.) Hello MySpace created a whole new type of hoe!!! MySpace Jump Off!!! Are you serious??!!

4.) Most of my really close friends are the kind of people to say, "why didn't you tell me that you sent me an e-mail? I would have checked it." So keeping up with FaceBook is a major reach.

5.) If as my friend you need to be ranked 1-8. . . . . yeah we can't be friends No Mo'.

6.) If we had beef in school and you just so happened to come across my profile - just keep going. Cause a friend request won't stop me from being a petty ass bytch who remembers why you pissed me off in the first place.

7.) And if we were really supposed to be friends I'd run into you at the bar or while shopping.

8.) These friends sites created a whole new kind of dating stupidity. I'll give quote as examples:

"I saw pics of you and him/her. And don't even lie because you just got that tattoo!!!"

"Why is -ex's name- leaving you last night was great comments??!!"

...you see where this was going.

9.) Beyonce is not you friend!!! Shyt she's not even Kelly's friend.

10.) I worked very hard all my life to give off the aura of a stuck-up bytch, and I'm not give that up for Tom!!

...

......but these are just my opinions. I'll still lurk on your pages. :oP

News: Black Dog Syndrome

2007-06-29T18:10:00.000-04:00

Discriminating Against Dogs: 'Black Dog Syndrome'
Shelters Nationwide Overcrowded With Black Dogs

.
Many loving pooches in need of good homes nationwide are being overlooked and underadopted at area shelters, and they all share one thing in common: the color of their fur.It's a phenomenon called "black dog syndrome" and it has pet advocates worried.

David Cuccia, a local artist, is a softie when it comes to dogs. They hang around his art studio and are commonly featured in his artwork. His best friend, Jasmine, is lucky to be alive. When he went looking for a dog at the pound, he was told that because so many people are afraid of large, black dogs, those dogs are more likely to be left in shelters than other animals."She said the black dogs have a real stigma," Cuccia said. source

* * * * *

Damn you know things are messed up when Black dogs are dealing racism. And the sad things this is a real issue. I googled Black Dog Syndrome and was shocked by how many articles there were. But if I weren't totally disgusted by the idea of picking up dog shyt on a regular basis, I would do right thing and adopt a chocolate canine.

ParisHilton on LarryKing

2007-06-28T01:38:00.000-04:00

Review : Paris on Live w/ Larry King

Sorry dear reader but I'm caught up in the hype *shrugs*

After spending 29 days in jail Paris has her first interview with Larry King and I plan to criticize as much of it as possible. :o)

-First off she took her blue contacts out (brown eyes make one smart and classy who knew) and I think she taped her wonky eye in place.

-Her quoting "Do your time, don't let the time do you." LOL the last time I heard that a "friend" was going to jail for 5 yrs for a gun charge.... What like you don't know people like that.

-Oh and Claustrophobia was her medical condition. YEA RIGHT!!! Try with drawl from Coke!!

- OK she went to MTV Awards to distract the media from her going to jail. I guess that worked since there aren't any pics of you going to jail the 1st time. But hearing Sarah Silverman say you'd suck a prison bar the same way you would a D is classic and I bet your ass wish you stayed home. hahaha

- Paris said she knows there's a man out there for her that will ignore her past and love her regard less. *side-eye * bwhahahahahaha I really don't think I should be laughing this much.

- Paris says she NEVER did drugs *rolls eyes* Just her some of her friends do drugs.

-btw, her church lady dress is killing me right now.

-Larry King is a tool.

-Paris says she spiritual, read the bible everyday in jail and went to Catholic school (explains sooo much). But when Larry asked what her favorite Bible passage was she said, "umm?....I don't have a favorite. I just read."

* * * * *

Hopefully that'll be the end.....

yea right!!!

Woman jailed for testicle attack

A woman who ripped off her ex-boyfriend's testicle with her bare hands has been sent to prison.

Amanda Monti, 24, flew into a rage when Geoffrey Jones, 37, rejected her advances at the end of a house party, Liverpool Crown Court heard. She pulled off his left testicle and tried to swallow it, before spitting it out. A friend handed it back to Mr Jones saying: "That's yours."
The court heard that Mr Jones had ended his long-term but "open
relationship" with Monti towards the end of May last year. The pair remained on
good terms and on 30 May she picked him up from a party in Crosby and went back
for drinks with friends at Mr Jones's house. An argument ensued and Mr Jones
said there was a struggle between them. In his statement, Mr Jones said she
grabbed his genitals and "pulled hard". He added: "That caused my underpants to
come off and I found I was completely naked and in excruciating pain."
The court heard that a friend saw Monti put Mr Jones's testicle
into her mouth and try to swallow it. She choked and spat it back into her hand
before the friend grabbed it and gave it back to Mr Jones. Doctors were unable
to re-attach the organ.
In a letter to the court, Monti said she was sorry for what she
had done. She said: "It was never my intention to cause harm to Geoff and
the fact that I have caused him injury will live with me forever. I am in no way
a violent person."

LMAO....Sorry men I don't mean to laugh but this is hella funny to me. "That's yours".... How drunk does on have to be to let all this craziness go down?... So the moral of this story is if a drunk woman wants the D, give her the D.

It's only June 3rd, and all ready George Bush has done more for the world than you. Bushy has declared June to be Caribbean-American Heritage Month. Yeah I don't know why either but as a Jamaican I'm mildly interested and curious to know why my nation didn't get its own week - but I digress. This is Bushy Proclamation:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim June 2007 as Caribbean-American Heritage Month. I encourage all Americans to learn more about the history and culture of Caribbean Americans and their contributions to our Nation. Source

I kid you not this is shortest proclamation I've EVER READ!!. When they made it Yankee Day in NYC that mess was 3times longer than this. So now I must bring my question to you dear reader.
George W. Bush declare June to be Caribbean Heritage Month because:
a.) of his great love of Caribbean people, culture and rum.
b.) f*** up his legacy as president so badly that he's grabbing at straws for anything good.
c.) Sending Colin Powell Front row tickets AND backstage pass to see Beyonce wasn't enough to save their friendship.
d.) Bush is just as confused and surprised by this as you are.

Before I even get into this post I have something off topic to say. If you are a blogger and you post on a regular basis - YOU ARE THE SHYT!!!....that is all.

* * *

Am I the only person who feels like R Kelly is taunting the general music listening public??...No seriously. I really think Kells is f**king with my emotions. If you listen to "urban" radio stations you hear all the new songs that R Kelly is rap/singing on. And to be honest I like some of the songs. Until he says something side ways and I recall the Golden Shower. For example the Swizz Beatz "Snitchez remix" ft R Kelly and Lil Wayne. Loving Lil Wayne parts, Kelly however is stressing me out. This is R Kelly's part with my comments.

Hi, hi nice to meet ya
It's Kells the freaker – Like messing with 16yr olds freaky??
Mr. 'Bump-and-Grind', - Nasty Ass
Mr. 'Song-of-the-Weeker'
R&B singer Mr. 'Defeater' – Like you're trying to beat child sex charges?
Sixteen years and still coming through ya speakers - You & 16yr olds!! SMH
Mr. 'Pied-Piper' Bitch I'm on fire – You probably got nasty man's disease
Don't trust me I'm a "Billboard Shiester" – Oh I don’t trust you!!
I got Dreamgirls - More lil girls huh?
What you wanna do Got them chick singin'
"and I am tellin' you..."
Up in the club Flossin' like a Don
Album bout to drop so you bitches better run – Like you drop your draws for 8th graders
Making her moan while I have sex to the song
After the sex, I beat my chest like I'm King-Kong Cause you feel big & strong next to young girls??Ice so cleared out everybody move

....or maybe I'm just looking.

10 Things to Say If You Get Caught Sleeping @ Your Desk

10. "They told me at the blood bank this might happen."

9. "This is just a 15 minute Stress Level Elimination Exercise Plan" (SLEEP) they raved about in that mandatory time management course you sent me to."

8. "Whew! Guess I left the top off the White-Out. You probably got here just in time!"

7. "I wasn't sleeping! I was meditating on the mission statement and envisioning a new paradigm."

6. "I was testing my keyboard for drool resistance."

5. "I was doing a highly specific Yoga exercise to relieve work-related stress. Are you discriminatory toward people who practice Yoga?"

4. "Damn! Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem."

3. "The coffee machine is broken..."

2. "Someone must've put decaf in the wrong pot..."

Naomi Campbell will perform cleaning duties for five days, after being ordered by a Manhattan judge earlier this year to community service as punishment for throwing a cell phone at maid Ana Scolavino.Campbell has been allowed to perform her cleaning duties in private, in a bid to avoid the press. Despite being warned by sanitation boss "not to wear heels" to work, Campbell arrived at the Lower East Side building at 8am in a pair of stiletto boots, although she was also carrying a pair of work shoes. 03.19.07 NYC

Naomi I love you for your beauty but I'll be damn if all you antics don't crack me up. WHY? WHY did you wear the Communist version of a Girl Scout Uniform??!! With the boots to match!!!

I bet her ass can't even walk in flats.

Amy Winehouse -You Know I'm No Good

2007-03-14T23:58:00.001-04:00

Ok for the most part I’m of the opinion that 73.4% of rap music sucks – HARD!! Of course there are a few solid songs out. There’s a Ghostface joint I’m feeling and I had a vision of the girl on the chorus. A Beautiful, Buxom, Black Belle. Then I saw this video – of the girl singing the chorus. Nothing like I envisioned, so now I’m intrigued.

Who is she? Amy Winehouse a singer out of London. Her voice is so soulful it reminds me of the old school singer like Etta James. I just really appreciating her style and I wanted to share.

World's Sexiest Man!!!

2007-03-09T14:17:00.001-05:00

I'm so jealous of the girl in the video. I wish Suge Knight would touch me like that just once. *fans self* Suge is a million ways of sexy!

Questions: Work

2007-03-08T11:58:00.000-05:00

?Questions?

1.) Do I put the time I got here? or the time I was supposed to get here?
2.) What do I need (to take home) from the supply room?
3.) How the hell do they expect me to hold my breath and say hello?
4.) I know they don't think I'm doing all this work? WTF I look like?
5.) Does co-worker know he could soooo get it? I wonder if he could keep his mouth shut?
6.) Does co-worker know he will never get it?
7.) Why isn't it Friday? or a Payweek?
8.) Why is the Bytch talking to me?
9.) What time is it?
10.) Is putting rat poison in co-workers coffee passive aggressive?

What questions go through your head at work?

News: Slickback & Cellphone

2007-03-08T00:25:00.000-05:00

There have been rumours that Terrance “Slickback” Howard has been dating Naomi “Cellphone Knockout” Campbel are dating. Slickback cleared up rumour in an interview with People :

"You gotta remember now, I'm still married." Howard and Lori, 35 – who have two daughters, Aubrey and Heavenly, and one son, Hunter – have been off and on since they married in 1989. "I'm still trying to get my wife back," Howard says. I'm always gonna, you know, till she puts the last nail that coffin, and I'm hoping she don't. "[She] filed for divorce but I'm still trying to campaign. My three kids are campaigning for me, too. They'll make sure that anybody who comes sniffing around gets a bloody nose."

Call me Ghetto but the idea of Naomi and one of Slickback kids fighting is giving me goose bumps.

News: Micheal Jackson

2007-03-04T15:22:00.000-05:00

Smiling and waving to screaming fans, Michael Jackson arrived in Japan on Sunday for his second visit in recent years for a party where those paying US$3,500 a ticket get to spend 30 seconds with the pop icon. While in Tokyo, the star will also host a fan art contest for Japanese who cannot afford VIP tickets.

My Two Cent: $3,500 for 30 seconds!!! That's $7,000 for a minute!!! That's $420,000 an hour. I need to move to Japan and start turning tricks, cause those folks are just throwing away money. I guess when you're the Kang of Pop (yes kAng) you can do stuff like that. Meanwhile I trying to get an extra $1 at the J.O.B.

News: Rev Al Wants DNA Test

2007-02-26T13:37:00.000-05:00

Black Activist Rev. Al Sharpton wants a DNA test to find out who his daddy iz. Recently Reverend Al was approached by Ancestry.com, and asked if he would like them to trace his family history. Reverend Al accepted the offer believing it would be great opportunity to learn about is personal history. Expectedly slavery was found in Al’s background, but the shock of Al life came when he found out who owned his family - a relative of Strom Thurman.
Strom Thurman was a career politician, a strong supporter of segregation and a racist. Reverend Al is shocked by these revelations and seeks a DNA test to see if there are any genenic links between his family and Strom Thurman’s. Although there is no evidence to this notion, based on the culture of slavery (Mass poppin off with his favorite Wench) DNA ties are extremely possible.

Footnote : I caught Reverend Al over the weekend, and homeboy sounded like his Momma just died. Trembling, cough, voice all scratchy, like he’d been crying all night. Come on, how can you really be shocked that a racist came from a family that owned slaves!!!

2007-02-18T18:11:00.000-05:00

Hi Kids, no I 've not decided to come out the closet as a lipstick lesbian. I just want to share my weekend.
One of my really good friends in college was visiting in the area, and asked me to hang-out. Of course I was down, until she said I needed to drive to Newark to see her. Newark is the murder capital of the Tri-State area, and S.K. loves her life. It took my friend Sandy and her friend DeeDee half an hour to convince me that I would NOT die. So I meet up with my Sandy at DeeDee house, and well we catch up and things get a little foggy after that. :o)
After the pre-party, Sandy, Deedee and DeeDee's friend Jay and myself were ready to hit the club. The club is a lesbian club and I am the only straight female in the group. Hey we only live once! We get to the club, everything is cool. I'm having a good time. (FYI - fogg+alcohol+music= S.K. is having a ball!!) Back to the story. We go to the second floor of the club and out of nowhere, I'm seeing mad DUDES!!! Real pretty nuccas. So now I'm wondering what's going on. I ask Sandy,"Why are there boys here?" Sandy looks at me confused, "Where you see a boy at in here? Point him out." I'm thinking is she serious. There's guys EVERYWHERE!! Then Sandy gives me the you-poor-silly-girl-face. "S.K. those aren't boy." Now I'm playing detective, and I realize that 40% of the girls in this club are dressed like thugged out boys. Jay takes this opportunity to laugh at me because as she put it, "You thought you had your pick. Nope not tonight." I had to laugh at my damn self for that one.
But anyway, I had so much fun. I learn a new song. Forgive me my memory's foggy but I believe the lyrics were - throw that p***y in his face/throw that p***y on him. There was a Big Booty Hoes contest. The DJ wanted a do over, because the chick that won had no ass. Oohooh there was a fight. A lipstick caught her "man" dancing with someone else. They fought all the way to the parking lot. They played Ciara's "Promise"-no lie, 7x in a row!! I had no idea that was an anthem. And S.K. got to chill with one of her best friends.

Caption This: K-C & Jamie Fox

2007-02-14T01:24:00.000-05:00

CAPTION THIS....

This picture of K-C and Jamie Fox makes me laugh everytime I look at it. I don't know which is funnier K-C's my "good eye squint" or Jaime flashing his pearl white or thr expression's of the guys in the background.

I promise a very nice "gift" for the funniest caption.

Madonna- Take a Bow

2007-02-10T14:14:00.001-05:00

Quotable: Sushi

2007-02-10T12:53:00.000-05:00

There's a gourmet grocery store by my job that sells sushi. I put a co-worker on to it, and now he eats their sushi on the regular. Anyway, he comes in with the sushi and I ask him what he got. This is the conversation...

Co Worker: Oh, I got eel and some other stuff. It's pretty good. You ever had eel?

S.K.: Yeah, but I don't like to eat it from there.

Co Worker: Why? What do you mean?

S.K.: Because I don't understand why when you get eel on a platter they cook it, but they don't cook it in the rice rolls.

Co Worker: Of course they cook it!! That do you think these people sell raw meat!!

S.K.: Are you being serious? You do know sushi is raw, right?

Coworker: Come on S.K. this is America! It's illegal to sell raw meat in America!!!

S.K.: Why are you doing this too me??!! You know what?Let me go do some work, because I'm about to fight you.

For those of you like my Coworker this is the definition of Sushi :o)

Eternal & Embrace

2007-02-07T10:56:00.000-05:00

A pair of human skeletons lie in an eternal embrace at an Neolithic archaeological dig site near Mantova, Italy, in this photo released February 6, 2007. Archaeologists in northern Italy believe the couple was buried 5,000-6,000 years ago, their arms still wrapped around each other in a hug that has lasted millennia.

OOHHHHH this is sooo romantic, and they say the spirit of Valentine's Day is dead. I bet they were having caught having an affair, her rich husband threatened to kill her lover, and he was poor but with a hot body. And in the end they decided they'd rather die together than live apart.

and yes I do watch soaps.

Tara Conner is Miss USA - I have major problem with this!!! She's a drunk, a coke head and a party girl (read slut). It's bad enough we have Paris Hilton running around, but I'm really not ok with have someone like this being the image of the average American woman. I know America has problems but damn!!!

I guess Donald Trump would rather have a coked up white girl represent America than a beautiful, intelligent, classy and drug free Black woman. Yes, the first runner up to Miss USA is a black woman named Tamiko Nash who needs to be given the title and the chance to represent something positive!!!

Drunk Illiterate Neighbors

2007-01-27T18:00:00.000-05:00

Let me tell you why my neighbours ain't shit. One of my neighbours is an drunk, not an alcoholic, but a drunk. So she goes out, gets pissy drunk, and comes home doing to pee-pee. She has to pee so bad that she can't focus on opening the front door to our building. So imagine a drunk woman in her 5o's, trying to put her key in a lock while stumbling and doing the pee-pee dance. Despite how many times she has done this act, she has not master it. What I mean is her drunk ass breaks her key in the front door lock on a regular basis. UGGGHHH!!!

Now, for everyone else to get into the building, tape is put over the part of the lock that fits into the door frame (I hope you know what I mean.) Another one of my stupid neighbors keeps removing the tape, and a sign was put up asking them to stop. This is the sign:

Do not Remove Tape Lock Do Not Wourk.

Since when is W-O-R-K spelled W-O-U-R-K??!! Where f**k did the U come from!!!!

Friends&TheNews

2007-01-27T14:35:00.000-05:00

Ok, I'm obsessive about the News. Like I need to be aware of whats going on in the world. So one morning last week I hear on the news that someone named Francisco Torres was arrested after escaping the law for over 30 years. I immediately start laugh because my friend has the same name. My plan was to call him, and harass him like "hahaha, you got arrested!!!" (yes, I'm 12yrs old.)

Anyway he calls me first, and guess what?....

IT'S HIS DAD!!!!! I had no idea what to say. I felt soooo bad. I still do. All I can do is go into extra-super-friend mode.

Here's the basics. If this weren't happening to someone I knew personally this would be an interesting news story, but..... Francisco Torres was involved in the Black Liberation Party during the 60's and 70's. Allegedly the group were on a cop killing campaign over this time period. After 35 years, DNA evidence linked Torres and seven others to the killing of a California police officer.

I haven't posted anything in a lOOOng time. I would lie and say I've been busy but truthfully I think my brain took a vacation and didn't bother to tell me. (This happens more often then you might think.) So for the sake of blogger decency, I will share a random moment from my life.

Last week end it was freakishly warm in NYC. It was 70 degrees in January, so me being me I put on my favorite black flip flops and went shopping. The goal was to find a cute tote bag to carry my work supplies (magazines, nail files, radio - you get the idea.) I make in down to Canal Street. As I'm searching to my dream bag I walk into this bizzare conversation....

African Man: Hey sexy. You want a free purse?
Me: I pause I look time up and down.
African Man: Ok sexy, you want to go out for dinner?
Me: I roll my eyes.
African Man: Hey at least you'll get a free purse out of it.
Me: sighs and walks away.

And the worse part is I didn't even find a new tote.

The Door Test

2006-12-21T01:54:00.001-05:00

I love the movie a Bronx Tale for several reasons- It’s a gangsta movie, Robert DiNero, the Door Test scene and a Black woman as the beautiful love interest.
During my early years of dating, I would always unlock the guy’s door, because of this movie. Flash forward 2006, everyone’s cars has remote locks. So what I’m supposed to do now? Sometimes it’s the simplest thing that can make a person “the one”. I know it is with me. So what is that subtle gesture now that stands out when dating?

CoCo does Smooth

2006-12-20T14:50:00.000-05:00

I get that Coco is a lot of Blackman's ideal Snowflake. I can see exactly why Ice T made Coco his wife. But the question I need answered is ....Does Coco look sexy on the Cover of smooth? The way her ass looks is gross!!! Are those butt implants or something? WTF?

And since I'm not a hater, I would like to compliment Coco on her proper form for a backshot. :)

Christmas Ether??

2006-12-19T15:17:00.000-05:00

I Need Advice
I’m sitting on the floor trying to make a box so that I can put my brother’s Christmas present in the mail early in the morning. Hoping that he will get the package before Christmas. And honestly I’m feeling a little sad. My mom’s in Jamaica (I didn’t want to go) and my brother is in Florida. So I’m spending my Christmas in New York, without my immediate family. It’s about 3:52 am while I’m tapping the gift box together that the light bulb goes off in my head. “No, this MuthaFatha didn’t.”
My brother gives our mother and me this sad story about being broke and how he can’t afford to get us any Christmas presents this year. So as I’m wrapping up his present and I remember that he tells me “Quianna, got her MP3 play already. And she loves it.” Quianna is not his wife, wifey or girlfriend. She is just a woman he is really cool with. Mentally and spiritually he says she’s a good woman, but she’s too fat for him. Ummhmm. Ok me aside, how is it that you have money to give your friend a gift but not your own mother? I really think I’m beyond pissed. And I want to say something but I really don’t wan the headache. What should I do?

Music: Young Jeezy "The Inspiration"

2006-12-19T04:14:00.000-05:00

Young Jeezy – “The Inspiration”

Jeezy’s first CD is a hood classic in my book, his sophomore CD – not so much. He stuck to the formula of the first CD a bit too much. The Inspiration doesn’t have the same energy as Thug Motivation 101. This CD doesn’t even get interesting until the 4th track. A couple songs stand out. "Go Getta" ft. R. Kelly but only because I was shocked the Mr. CEO, Jay-z, allowed R. Kelly any airtime. "The Realest" and "Bury Me A G" – I liked a lot. Also Keyshia Cole does the damn thing on "Dreaming".

Overall: Pick out the song you like and download them.

Drunken Man

2006-12-17T14:05:00.001-05:00

Thanks to Freshley Snipes I am mildly obsessed with a rapper by the name of RehDogg. His fragile grasp of the English language brings me no ends of joy. (At first I thought he was rapping in Nigerian.)
Drunken Man is one of my favorite RehDogg video. Drunken Man is about a man who drinks to easy the pain after the death of his grandmother (I know she would be soo proud.) But I really have comments about this video:
1.) Why is this man allowed to have weapons?
2.) Video hoes need to get some kind of standards committee.

Quote : I thought you knew!!

2006-12-05T14:27:00.000-05:00

If I'm in public and there is a loud conversation going on - I listen. I think of it as God's way of keeping me entertained while I'm away from TV. So the other day I hear this:

Lady: Hey, How are you and Tasha doing?
Man: Good. Me and Wifey are doing good.
Lady: That's nice. You know you're better than me. I couldn't be with anybody that scandlous.
Man: What?
Lady: You know, the why Tasha said she was pregnant so you'd move her in and start paying her bills. Then she say she doesn't want the baby and asks for money for an abortion, but takes the money to go shopping. That's how she got her last man.
Man: What??!!
Lady: Oh my bad I thought you knew.

This lady knew homeboy was clueless, otherwise she wouldn't have told him the whole story. If anyone ever says "I thought you knew" that's there way for fucking up your day!!! That person has probably been waiting to fuck up your day. Wait for you to me smiling, looking happy as hell just so they can stick it to you. That lady walked away with a big ass smile, meanwhile the man is looking pathetic as all hell. Some people just ain't right.

Kanye's LV Days Are Over!!!

Paris & Britney BFF 4 Eva

2006-11-26T20:54:00.000-05:00

I'm really considering writing a book on the importance of friends. And you can best believe that Britney Spears will be getting a signed copy. Britney has been hanging out with Paris Hilton, clearly for media attention but come on. How does Britney hang out with Paris and end up looking like the dirty whore!?!?! (Sorry Paris) For some reason Brit looks like a 80's prostitute to me. Think back to "Trading Spaces" the Eddie Murphy movie, doesn't Brit dress like Jamie Lee Curtis character? hahaha And the worst part is, you know Paris is laughing at her.

INDIA ARIE- READY FOR LOVE (LIVE)

In the past 2 weeks I've realize that I'm over all my past relationships. I have managed to do so wiser, believing in love more than ever and not bitter. I Love this India Arie song and it has my "raw emotion" covered.

WTF??? Paris and Flava?!?!

2006-11-23T01:08:00.000-05:00

Okay they technically aren't kissing, but knowing the both of these people's track records would you really be suprised if they were "dating". Apparently Paris ran into Flava backstage at the AMA. But seriously why are either of these people still getting attention? What exactly are their talents?. . . by the way doesn't Paris' knee look kinda rough?

So I tried it, my teeth were white before but now there like extra bright white and I haven't even used half the tube yet. It's really good and you know a sexy smile is a major part of any one's swagger.

Today I'm going to tell you a story about Sam*. Ok, the other night I was getting off the train and I saw this guy like glance at me and charge my way. Me being the New Yorker that I am - I tucked my chain in my shirt (ain't nobody snatching my diamonds) and grip my keys in my pocket (I will poke somebody in the eye out with my house key). To my Surprise when he approached he politely introduced himself as Sam, I really wasn't interested but the boy kept walking and talking to me, oh wait did I tell you it's raining and he has no umbrella - yeah. So despite my rudeness and trying my best to make him go away, he tells me that he just graduated college and goes to a really good church by me (they filmed the wedding scene for American Gangsta there). I give him the benefit of the doubt, assume he's a good guys and take his number. I block my cell number and call him- so far so good. The convo is ok minus the moments Sam pauses to yell at his mother to close his door hahaha This is where it gets crazy. Sam tells me he has a degree in Computer Science and loves to "produce" gospel music - but he works at a candy store. OK??? So I ask him if he could have his dream job what would it be? Why does this fool black out on me??!!! ....Sam "I'm only 26 I don't need to know what I want to do with my life until I'm 30. What kind of question is that anyway? Blackwomen are to caught on with a blackman's money. I hate when Blackwomen do that!! etc etc" Excuse me? I put him in check, Sam apologize because he has issues that he's not doing jack with his life. I am now politely trying to get off the phone and he hits me with. . . . . . ."so what kind of (sex) freak are you? Cuz everybody got some kinda freak in them." Sam produces gospel music.

Hanging up the phone felt really good.

The Pitt Family Field Trip

2006-11-13T16:33:00.000-05:00

The Pitt Family are still in Mumbai, India, while Angelina Jolie finishes filming A Mighty Heart. Their multi-cultural family is really starting to grow on me. But I still can't figure out why Zaharia always looks pissed off. I can't wait until she grows up to be a black diva and Brad can't handle her.

New Album Cover

2006-11-13T16:21:00.000-05:00

I guess this is the latest edition of Mary's Album Cover. I was trying to figure out which cover I liked better but they look to different for me to compare. Someone said that the other cover looked like the grandma's wood panel basement. haha She definatly looks great, and I love that she's showing her beauty scar.

Congrats!!!!

Beenie Man wife D'Angel gave birth to a healthy baby boy Nov. 9th in Jamaica. This was the couple's statement. "Mr. and Mrs. Moses Davis would like to announce the birth of their son, Marco Dean on November 9, 2006. We are indeed grateful to God that he is healthy and that there were no complications during birth. We are certain that he will bring joy to our lives and strengthen our love for each other. We would like to thank family, friends and our fans for their prayers and best wishes at this time. We love you all."
You have no idea how proud I'm to say wife in this post.
